You seem completely detached from reality, or maybe it’s all about, “I got mine, what’s the problem?”

Everything has nearly *doubled* in 6 years yet some people like you are unable to see any problem. Get real.

LOL...we are retired and retirees get hit 10X harder than working people. We worked hard our entire lives, lived modestly, saved and saved. We planned for the future with 3% inflation. We did not anticipate 100% in 6 years. Yet we don’t bitch.

Life’s tough. So stuff it.
